I know it is not terrifically useful to say "me too," but I have some 40 pending subscriptions from excite.com addresses, and not a single new subscription, over the last 3 days.
I am corresponding with Ted. H over at excite.com member services, in the hope that they can change their blocking criteria. If this is an annoyance for anyone else, I suggest going to the excite.com website and give a hand trying to explain the irony of viewing confirmation emails as spam attempts.
